An Encounter With Spirit

Hello and welcome to the Ancient wisdom modern mind podcast and today I would like to describe “Losing the Human Form” and this will be in two parts.

• Part 1: metaphysical description of the experience

• Part 2: personal accounting of the event.

Also if this podcast resonates with you, both part 1 and part 2 of this podcast are extracts from the book Autobiography of a Sorcerer which is available from the links.

And to provide a brief background, the idea of “Losing the Human Form” comes from the books of Carlos Castaneda, an anthropology student who seeks out a Native American sorcerer (“Don Juan”) in order to learn about the Native American Yaqui wisdom traditions.

Don Juan explained to Carlos in “Journey to Ixtlan”, that stopping the world was a technique practiced by those who were hunting for power, a technique by virtue of which the world as we know it was made to collapse.

Since Stopping the World is outside of the first attention, I can only give a description of the experience from an esoteric perspective, which is part 1 of this podcast. Part 2 will be in the form of a personal accounting of the experience from within self’s imagined grandeur.

Self-importance in its guise as Clarity is now humbled, but it is a false humility, a false surrender. Social conditioning is never defeated through meekness. Humility is what you learnt as a child through reward and punishment, but you are no longer a child, now you must choose freedom or servitude to humanity.

Our self-reflection is literally a mirror through which the mind is able to create Pattern recognition thus building a Rational Loop foe the conscious mind to cling. We stare at our own reflection finding wonderment or disappointment within ourselves, while the True Self is there just slightly out of our comprehension. Self-reflection thus builds and reinforces your duality and our dualistic interpretation of the world. You could say that self-refection is our personal description of our reality.

Losing the human form is the term use by sorcerer to describe stepping beyond this dualistic description which binds us to our self-importance.

The term ‘human form’ was introduced into the spiritual science by Carlos Castaneda from the words of Juan Matus, and it disguises the sorcerer from the normal characteristic and thinking behavior of the majority of people. Or you could simply say that it is their ‘human form’ that expresses self-importance.
